13th Door

As haunted houses go, this venue has everything you can ask for.

Traverse dank hallways occupied by raging zombies feasting on the corpses of those who ventured before you.

But watch out!

Don’t get trampled to death by the wild horse dragging its hearse and undead passengers in the overgrown cemetery.

And when you leave the cemetery, keep an eye on who's next to you – it may be your friend, or it might just be a corpse-eating zombie!

Fright Town

Underneath Veterans Memorial Coliseum lie three of the scariest haunted houses in the Pacific Northwest, all combined into one location for one price.

Run through, err…I mean, visit Baron Von Goolo’s Museum of Horrors to see a mixture of humor and horror; consider it a warm-up for what’s to come.

After that, be prepared to freefall into darkness and fright as you travel through “The Madness” haunted house, based on the writing of H.P. Lovecraft, the greatest horror author of all time.

And before you’re set to leave, you have to help the police find those who came before you. It turns out, a devil-worshipping cult is communicating with unknown demons, and sacrificing those who come between them and their conjuring. The SWAT team needs your help – are you up for the frightful challenge?

Three haunted houses for three types of nightmares. Suffice to say, there is something for every thrill seeker at Fright Town.

The Shanghai Tunnels

Did you know?

Below the City of Portland, there lies an extensive map of underground tunnels once used for just about every unjust and indecent act known to humankind: prostitution, opium dens, booze storage during prohibition, and human trafficking.

These acts led to the demise of thousands of men and women throughout the 19th and 20th century, and they continue to haunt those who dare go below the city streets.

Some of them were innocent bystanders hired to do the dirty deeds for a living. Others, ehh, not so innocent.

Regardless, the reports of paranormal findings is endless, giving Shanghai Tunnels a big thumbs-up when it comes to determining if the tunnels, often known as “catacombs” are still haunted.

The mere size of this tunnel system once designed for shipping helps label Portland as on of the most haunted cities in the United States.

The Fear PDX

Three attractions are combined into one at this Vancouver venue.
 
Your trip will start by making your way through “The Cursed”, an abandoned voodoo temple that will have you attempting to avoid monsters and the dark forces that have kept them alive.

Assuming you get through the maze of passages, be prepared to run for your next experience. “The Outbreak” will have you running for cover from viral-induced zombies secretly infected by the US Government. But be careful, the zombies won’t be the worst issue you’ll come across.

And how can it be a haunted attraction without some good-ole psycho country boys chasing you with chainsaws. Be careful, I think Ma’s bringing out her favorite seasoning for the night’s dinner – you!

The dinner table is set, and they’re waiting for you in Vancouver.
